I. Please provide the syntactic trees (exactly the way we did in class) for the four Lo formulas listed in (2-4) on p. 16 of Dowty et al (1981), Chapter 2. (20 pts, 5 pts for each formula) II. Consider our (toy) language Lo, which has four names: d, n, j, m. Consider the model (i.e., toy world) specified in chapter 2, which has only four individuals: Richard Nixon, Noam Chomsky, John Mitchell and Muhammad Ali. We require every name to be associated with exactly one individual - and that individual is the semantic value of the name. How many ways are there to assign semantic values (i.e., individuals in our model) to the four names of Lo? Briefly justify your answer (in a couple of lines of text). (15 pts)
